I’ve come across an app called CCTV Super Password that claims to reset passwords for various security camera brands in just a few minutes. Out of curiosity, I decided to give it a try myself. If it really works as claimed, I might no longer need to rely on multiple tools to reset forgotten passwords for security devices like NVRs, DVRs, and IP cameras.
In this article, I’ll walk you through how I used CCTV Super Password to reset the password on my Hikvision DVR.
Do DVR, NVR, and IP cameras have default passwords? This was a question a few days ago from a customer who forgot the password for their Hikvision DVR. However, there really isn’t a default password. Some brands may have a default password printed on the label. I then explained to them that DVRs don’t have default passwords, but I suggested using the one I provided. As it turned out, the DVR could be unlocked.
In this article, I’ll provide a list of default passwords for DVRs, NVRs, and IP cameras for almost all brands that you can use if you forget your password.
